Thank you muchly
I had a look at your work. LUV your landscape and skyscape photography. A he shots of your rabit a cute but they look too much like snapshots. If you could take some deep obervation shots - closer, 'rabits eyes view shots'. SHots of rabit activity - evidence of such activity. That would open up the appeal of your rabit shots dramatically.
If you have a digital camera - use it a lot - if you don't - get one ASAP. Because you need to take as many shots as you can. They are comming down in price all the time. Processing costs get in the way of that.
Keep up the great work - and don't get a cold in all that snow

Thank you for the compliment on my skyscapes, I also thank you for the tip on improving my work. Im still sort of trying to develop my style as a photographer, and I have an automatic camera, so I have absolutely no control over where the focus is. That is a big problem for me. Hopefully I can get my hands on a manual camera soon as to improve my work. My Aunt might have one that was my Grandfather's, so Im hoping they find it!

Not a problem... any time. %99 of all photography is in framing the picture. Getting yourself in the right possition and taking advantage of what like you have is all you really need. A lot of great photographes never used anything more than a box brownie camera. If you can't get a better camera - just think of the limitations of your camera as a challenge for now.

This is fantastic. The motion is really well simulated and considering that it was done in pencil i think it deserves lots of congrats

Thanky you muchly.
If you read some of my other answers you will see why it has some much passion in it.
The actional photo I have of the original is a little out of focus - I hope to have a better on up in the new year.

about 100 hours over two months
but before I started the final vision I did a heap of developmental work, including learning to ride.
All in all I spent six months on the project.

damn it! u re just wondering me, and my eyes are falling away 
what pencil u use? 2 B ?
i dunno.... this is first traditional art which made me almost cry

I NEVER use 2B. In fact I don't use graphite pencils at all.
Far too light, and they polish the paper.
I think the pencils were Staedtler but they were painted blue with black ends and white trim.
their numbers were EB and EE (darker than 6B)
they had the texture of a high quality colour pencil - they are very good for drawing on plastic, like a chinograph pencil. Great for labeling CDs btw.
The pain in the horse was my pain at the time. It is blind with pain frustration and rage - and the source is its own mane. Terrible.

I know what you mean - i have a few things like that.
sometimes you get something that feels 'too good'

yes but in the end is probably not a healthy thing because it is self indulgent. These days I often finds stuff that I put away and wonder why i did so. In the end it is only the work that matters.

Thats really dynamic! I swear I could see that horse move. I love the composition in this drawing

well... it is very loosely based on a small DaVinci drawing... but just about every line has been reconsidered and modified about a thousand times. Funny thing was - the 'look' of the image was instinctive on my part. It just came together without much thought of other people's work. My last year of high school was insaine. I just wanted to put into the horse how I felt about my life at the time. I was that fire horse.... I wanted out!
